I just activated member #993 , Seven more and were there.
So far it's been GREAT and seems to get better as the months go by.

I have met some very cool people because of this Forum . I have got to spend time with some very good people [ In their HOMES and ON THEIR BOATS ] again I would like to THANK the Wifes and FAMILYS that have allowed me and some of our FRIENDS into their Life, homes and Boats. Pete let Tori know were coming back with a Moving Van one day :mrgreen:
Of course you all are welcome anytime at my house . We are a good spot to stop if yall are traveling cross country and we have a BUTTLOAD of parking.
Again , it's a PLEASURE to have everyone aboard and getting along.

P.S. maybe we could get 2 or 3 boats with Forts together for 2012 in Alaska and have a AAB meet/Fish off in PWS

Yes - been keeping an eye on the numbers myself. Pretty darn cool!

And I'll second what Lester said - There are some really great people on this forum. I too am honored to have met so many wonderful folks. :thumbsup: :highfive:

Cheers!

Welder and Daddy'O just want the last 7 members to make 1000 to be in serious vacation destinations :rotfl: :rotfl:

I don't remember Welder back in the THT days traveling to spend days upon a floating fort, drinking, fishing, and eating fat and happy with the compadres.

Hmmmm.....must be called "perks" of the Admin. Association.

Fortune 500 Forum Mogal perks. (or several weeks paid vacation time??)

Meet ya at Dockside bait and tackle, Slidell La.
I'll buy the live schrimps, and teach ya hows to "slip float fish", which they are now all doing and I've done my whole life for Jax Trout

As they are NOW back to KILLING the trout since the Bonnet Carre spill way has shut back down.

Proof. That makes me jus wanna drop the house, pack up and never come back ever again, so I can just be a Trout whore:
